Curves Around the World: PLAID/TARTAN

Hello, my fabulous friends!!!

PLAID, PLAID, PLAID ... Some call it Tartan - This is one of the trends that are going strong all over the world currently and its not different here in South Africa. As a result its difficult to get decent pieces with ease :(

This weeks Curves Around the World theme is the famous PLAID. You have already guessed it, right??? I love this trend as it is versatile in every persons wardrobe. So, for this challenge I have worn my PLAID VEST and paired it with thrifted sweat pants -- which fit me as leggings, lol ....

As you can see: I have great love for my electric blue shoes and bag :) I am a guilty accessories repeater, forgive me guys :) We don't buy things to wear them once do we??? lol

I am really pushing it with this outfit, I have a crop top showing my tummy, peg leg sweat pant or must I say LEGGINGS??? Anywho, I think my outfit is perfect!!! My hair is also absolutely bangin :)

Have you tried the plaid trend??? If not, id advise that you should - it really is fun and versatile. Try all nice colours. Mix with prints, polka dots, animal print, bold bright colours and see where plaid takes you. In short, have fun with it :)

What do you think of my outfit???

Pants: Thrifted

Crop Top: Mr Price

Vest: Mr Price

Bag: Chanel

Earrings: Givenchy

Bracelets: Pep Stores

Watch: Guess

Please check out my lovely friends from around the world how they have interpreted this weeks theme - PLAID!!! Don't forget to follow me on Bloglovin, Pinterest, BeauCoo, Tumblr and Instagram. I promise to follow back when you do :)

You look amazing as always Thulie! It's ok to reuse accessories, what you said is right no one buys accessories to only wear them once, I know when I like something I wear it so much. I love your vest! Does it have a leather collar detail on it? If it dose I like it even more! Oh and your working those sweats, you really do make sweats look fabulous! I hope I can do the same when the time comes to wear sweats! And yes your hair looks great! :)

About Me

I am Thulie ... a plus size lady, lover of vintage (thrifts most of my outfits) also lover of other finer things in life. I work very hard for them, I promise :)

By profession, I am an Epidemiologist. Sometimes, I feel like I am in a wrong profession as I love the fashion industry so much. I aspire to be a recognised Plus Size Model, a Fashion Buyer and Stylist for reputable clothing companies. I am currently assuming this role and it benefits close friends.

I am about Woman Empowerment in the fashion front of things as well as a Body Positivity advocate.

I battle with my weight but don't be mistaken I am a highly confident plus size person you will ever meet, mostly I love myself very much RIGHT NOW!!!

I am a firm believer of being healthy no matter what size a person is. Being healthy - is a very personal definition and therefore no one must ever attempt to define it on behalf of the other person.

In short, I use this page as a platform to share my every day life and healthy lifestyle journey in hopes to inspire other women in similar situations.
